Last year Vodafone started tie-ups with several manufacturers to offer affordable 4G smartphones. Today it has announced a partnership with Flipkart to offer entry-level 4G smartphones at an effective price of Rs. 999. Micromax, iVoomi, YU, Xolo, Intex, Swipe and Alcatel are the brand partners.
As a part of this partnership, Vodafone has rolled out cash back offers on the select range of entry-level 4G Smartphone models available under Flipkart’s #MyFirst4GSmartphone campaign. All existing and new Vodafone pre-paid customers who purchase any of the eligible popular entry level smartphones available on Flipkart can enjoy the cash back offers.
To avail this special offer, customers have to recharge at least Rs. 150 per month for 36 months (recharges can be of any denomination totaling to a minimum of Rs. 150 per month). At the end of 18 months, customers will receive a cash back of Rs. 900 and after another 18 months, a cash back of Rs. 1,100 respectively, thus availing a total cashback of Rs 2000. Cash back will be credited to their Vodafone M-Pesa wallets.
